As elusive as the unicorn....
Been searching for years the "sealife" collection from D & E.
I happen to get up very early one morning, and decided to browse the net, and came across this Angel Fish! It had been listed for under 5 minutes, before I quickly snared it.
Look at his colors! The royal blue border & navettes with sea-green navettes mixed in. Ruby chaton with ab for his 3D eye ( even the teeny chatons around his eye are pronged set), and ruby mouth. Underlying turquoise " bubbles" for fun. The seller told
me she took a loupe and could find not one scratch on the stones! Yippie!
I remember when Balstonlake found one of these at a thrift store! Then there was the one that " got away" cuz I hymned and hawed too long. Not this time!
I'm so happy, I'm giddy! Now I just need the Starfish, Seahorse, Dolphin, Crab, & Lobster! I have seen the seahorse ($$$), but have never laid eyes on the others in the marketplace. This is only the 3rd. Angel Fish I have seen, like I said..."as elusive as the unicorn"
I'm sorry, I have to recant. I have seen one Lobster, not very pretty colors $700! Gulp!
ENJOY!
You really deserve this beauty and I am happy it was you that got it. You must have felt elated as its beauty is undeniable. Bless you and your collection !~
What a great early morning find! Very nice my friend!
Gorgeous fish! So vibrant!
Your fish is so beautiful!! What a Great catch!! Congrats! :D
So sorry it took so long to get back to everyone...one crazy week. That being said...
Jenni,
I can always count on a comment from you that brings a smile...
You are such a dear friend, and I thank you!
Phil,
as our top- of- the- line collector here on CW. Yes.. I'll say it again...
A comment from you means alot to me, as you think my pieces are of quality and beauty, you always say what you mean, and I appreciate it! Bless you too, my Friend :)
Thank you Mary,
Yes, something got me out of bed that morning. You have to get up early to go fishing, I learned that from my Dad :)
MrsT,

Sheluvsjewelry,
Thank you! and again a warm welcome to CW! We have so much fun here, along with learning so much about vintage jewelry...looking forward to more posts from you. And yes dear, he was a "great catch" :)
And thank you for all the loves ,dears! So much appreciated!!
I was thinking of past fishing trips and wonder if you put this on a line, would bigger fish try to eat this beaute ??~
Thank you Phil for commenting on my past posts yesterday. Means a lot to me, since of late I was told by someone I was not a “ top collector”. Hurt. Since I posted this Angel fish, I have acquired the crab ( profile pix), and I have my eyes on the lobster. These pieces are in the triple digits, and so hard to come by. Hopefully, someday, I will have them all...
Thanks again, my friend!
I love the GREEN :)
